The High Court has today (Friday 21 February 2020) emphatically ruled in favour of the NHS in Kent and Medway over the decision to establish ‘hyper acute stroke units’ (HASUs) at Darent Valley Hospital, Maidstone Hospital and William Harvey Hospital. 

The Chair of Medway NHS Foundation Trust, Stephen Clark, whose term of office comes to an end in March 2020, has been thanked for all he has done for the hospital.

A man from Medway has thanked an off-duty employee from Medway Maritime Hospital for ‘’saving his life’’ after his heart stopped for seven minutes following a cardiac arrest.

We have been made aware of rumours circulating on social media claiming that our Emergency Department is currently closed.

This is not the case and patients should continue to attend as normal.

Staff at Medway NHS Foundation Trust are hosting a special information marketplace to mark World Cancer Day at Medway Maritime Hospital on Tuesday 4 February. 

The Catering Team at Medway NHS Foundation Trust has been working hard in recent months to improve the quality and choice of meals for patients, visitors and staff at Medway Maritime Hospital.

Like many other NHS Trusts in the Country, the Emergency Department at Medway Maritime Hospital is experiencing extremely high numbers of attendances. Some of these patients could have been treated more appropriately elsewhere.
